Question about unlocking my phone.

    I requested an unlocking code from Three a couple of days ago. I received an email from them around 7pm yesterday saying my phone would be unlocked in 24 hours. I don't fully understand the contents of the email which I have posted below.

    I don't intend changing networks, I'm selling the phone privately but probably not for a week or so yet, will the phone still work after 7pm this evening or do I have to get a new Three SIM, I still have loads of credit on it.

    EMAIL:

    Your handset will be unlocked in 24hrs
    *Tip: before unlocking your iPhone, we recommend that you back it up*


    Apple does not issue an unlock code; instead they unlock the handset over the air.


    After 24hrs, please follow the below instructions carefully.


    Step 1: Insert a Non Three SIM card into the phone
    Step 2: Turn handset on
    Step 3: Connect the phone to iTunes
    Step 4: Restore the software

    Your handset is now unlocked from the Three network and capable of taking any network SIM card. There is no need for you to call us!


    Regards,
    Three Customer Services
